overhyped games?

[David]

any games that were/are hyped up to be amazing that you thought were terrible?

[scottish]

dayz
sims

[David]

can you even overhype sims though, aren't they all the same lol

[Chris]

Well I don't think these two games were terrible, but they definitely don't live up to the hype: Titanfall and Watchdogs.

[Jazz]

COD Black Ops 2
GTA 4
Dota 2

[David]

thought gtav wasn't all it was said to be personally, played the storyline once and haven't touched it since

[j0rd]

watchdogs
none of the cod series since cod4

[Jazz]

thought gtav wasn't all it was said to be personally, played the storyline once and haven't touched it since

for the "most expensive game created" it wasn't particularly as great as I expected it to be

[Puss]

you guys play terrible games. :(

[scottish]

yeah gta v was crap especially as it was like *+*+bank heists after a month*+*+ a year later i dont think they're even released are they ;l

cod:waw was good from a PC standpoint because we could heavily modify everything in zombies and it was prob the most modded version of zombies yet which i loved.

and ofc it's the original and best zombies!!!

[David]

weren't all the console lobbies for waw hacked and modded too lol
think i remember multiplayer being unplayable because of it.

[scottish]

idk didn't really play it on console

but think we had someting like 300 custom maps for PC and crap lol

[Puss]

Cod 4 starwars mod... best thing ever on cod!!!!!!!!!

[FlyingJesus]

Diablo III
Every single FPS because they're all the same game
PES 2010
FIFA 2011/12/13
Club Tropica
Kazopark

[Lewis]

Gears of War: Judgement was crap.

gears of war 1-3 storylines were all amazing, but gears of war 2 multiplayer was overall the best.

[iBlueBox]

Nintnedo dogs is over hyped.

[Zak]

GTA IV wasn't the game I imagined it to be.

[Inseriousity.]

final fantasy, couldnt get into it.

Nintnedo dogs is over hyped.

Oh tell me about it, that game was awful. They made it out that it was the best thing since sliced bread. I didn't like Animal Crossing either tbh, only good if you are online all the time and have friends.

[CrazyLemurs]

WildStar; that's proved to be completely average despite being named as WoW's successor. Diablo 3 was a little less fun than I thought it might be, but it's kept me interested quite a bit

Regardless of the onlone heists, which don't bother me anyway, I honestly don't think GTA V was over-hyped. It was literally all I wanted on a game (short of having kids in there that I can kill).

For me, I'd say Gears of War 2 and CoD Black Ops/Black Ops 2/any other FPS that I only bought because of the hype.

This is why I never, ever buy a new game now before it hits £10 or so. Nothing but disappointment in the games industry. Except GTA, I will always pay £40 for GTA.

has anybody played Elder Scrolls Online yet? I feel like that got a bit of hype and was looking to be the next big mmo but everybody I know that preordered it or whatever doesn't even play it any more and I haven't heard much about it since its release.

[scottish]

I never played it but yeah it was all hyped up due to Skyrims success then it failed apparently lol

[David]

didnt even bother trying it, knew it wouldn't be good.

[Jurv]

watchdogs
minecraft
runescape

[iBlueBox]

Also DJ Hero was overhyped.

[dbgtz]

The first Black Ops for me. Since then, I don't really get hyped for games with the exception of MGS V.

too much monetisation with not a lot to do

[Suicune]

I thought this game was pretty good but The Last of Us was overhyped. I've yet to finish it but yeah. Quite surprised that no one has mentioned this yet.

[Zak]

I thought Red Dead Redemption was poor too.

[Sian]

dragon age 2, it was hyped a bit and they completely ruined it. I can't wait for inquisition, but I hope they havent ruined that too, with all this hype.

[iBlueBox]

Always thought sonic was over rated

[dbgtz]

I thought this game was pretty good but The Last of Us was overhyped. I've yet to finish it but yeah. Quite surprised that no one has mentioned this yet.

I agree, though I did finish it twice and the DLC once. I'm not quite sure why it didn't live up to my hype though.

[Kardan]

Can't believe people are saying GTAV was overrated.

The newer Sonic games have never lived up to my expectations. And all the main Mario games after Galaxy 2 have been crap.

[.:TaylorSwift:]

Nintnedo dogs is over hyped.

U crazy I love that game :0 I got some rares from walking my only pet

I was excited for the Zelda skyword but soon I became afraid of the giant spider so I just stopped played.

[Zak]

I hope that some of the next-generation games coming out on the PS4 aren't a flop. They've been hyped up quite a bit and there is quite an expectation.

Games like Fifa 15, F1 2014, Last of Us and GTA V Remastered.
